Yeah we dont ı dont like them either do you know why?No one loves Israel at all.You know what they done.Armenia hah!Coz they are liar.I'm sure everyone knows about so-called Armenian genocide.This is not true!!They'd been living in Ottoman Empire and they'd been safe and sound.After Slav rebellion they decided to be free.They were already free!!!In Ottoman Empire Everyone had got the same benefits.But they betrayed us.In every war so many men are killed.There's another genocides but no one talks about them!!This is not fair.I dont know what the world wants from us.What have we got here???I cant understand sometimes.If someone doesnt hurt us,We dont do that too We are not a fighter people now.
No one misunderstands me please I just wanted to defend my country when ı got a chance

I think the problem is that there are very many Armenians abroad who are talking about their tradegy ( for them it was a tragedy) but there are no Turkish talking about their version ( maybe it's not the best word). There are 4 million Turkish in Germany but I've never heard them latking about it anywhere. Armenia has stron lobby abroad but Turkish seem not to think about it much. Maybe the problem is that most of Turkish in Germany go there as workers, generally not educated villagers and they thougt more about making money than about history of their country..

I don't think it's wrong at all to go to another country. I believe we are all God's children no matter where we live. I'm American but I have Irish and German descent. Look at history and all of the explorers. There isn't anything wrong with having a devotion for your country and love for other borders. I welcome you to America, who knows you may like it here if you are open-minded.

Quoting mltm: Quoting RICK: TURKS FIND THEIRSELVES CLOSE TO THE COUNTRIES BELOW (AS I VE SEEN):
OF COURSE AZERBAIJAN - N.CYPRUS - UZBEKISTAN - KAZAKHSTAN - TURKMENISTAN - KIRGIZISTAN
THEN
UKRAINE - GEORGIA - GERMANY (SURPRISING?) - GREECE - SPAIN - ITALY
THENNN
KOREA - INDONESIA - BANGLADESH - PAKISTAN - CUBA - VENEZUELA ( )
WELL THATS ALL I REMEMBER NOW ......
SO THE COUNTRIES THEY DONT LIKE;
FRANCE (NUMBER 1 NOW) - USA - NEW IRAQ
AM I WRONG ABOUT IT? |
I don't agree with this very much. I cannot talk for all the turkish people because there're different people in different regions.
I don't think we feel very close to the Turkic countries like Özbekistan, Kazakistan etc. but morely we consider them as cousins
I think we feel closer to Mediterranean countries and Germany.
North Cyprus is ofcourse the small Türkiye
I think a few years ago US was also a favourite country for Turks, well now there're more haters than lovers.
For the countries that Turks don't have much sympathy for might be France as you said although we have historical relationships (well I think the opposite as I'm half french!! ) and ofcourse the arab countries we don't get along very well.
Erhmm, and what can I say about Greece, are we eternal enemies?? but still we have too much common.
Pakistani, Korea are good friends.
For the far east and south america and african countries, I think we're too far to feel something.
Well, I don't like very much making such classifyings since most of the things are political and if people want, all people can get along well and neither of us is very different than the other. |
actually i think that turks and arabs are on good terms 2gether since they have the same religion and nearly have the same culture. i mean that they are similar to arabs and to westerns at the same time and arabs love turks and vice versa plus many turkish words are derived from arabic words..they even have similar kinds of food.and when i went there they loved hearing that im from egypt (misir)wutever thats my point of view
